I am opposed to this feature also, because it detroys my favorite vehicle, the warthog. People say oh well, the boosting feature will balance this out. Banshees and Ghosts have received the boosting thing to evade homing rockets, but they were already hard to hit with a rocket launcher. Now my favorite vehicle, the warthog, is without the boost ability. I mean, if you are playing multiplayer, you already avoid a hog if there is a rocket-whore anywhere on the map. I fear that the hog may be at it's end.

Frankly, I see no point in buffing up the already most feared weapon in the game.

Don't know if you guys notice, but I think that the power of the Rocket Launcher has been toned down. If you watch that same demo again, it takes 2 or three shots with a homing rocket to kill someone. So I don't think it'll be overpowered, if it was a one hit kill, then I'd have something to gripe about.

I'm pretty sure the most feared weapon is the pistol. At least at my local LAN matches, I pwn without ever touching a rocket.

I don't really care for homing rockets. Its one of the most deadly weapons in Halo 1! If you know how to use it, you don't need the homing ability. Anyways thats my opinion.

And how are you supposed to dodge one of those suckers???? :^D


I agree...then newbs would win constantly, even with no skill, and be on the very top of XBOX live....possibly....

The rockets don't kill the people in the Warthog. With one rocket your only chance to stop them is if it flips over. With your amazing rocket skills can you hit the same Warthog 4 times before it returns the flag?

your not a noob unless you use rockets on a human just running aroung. But if you kill someone in the vehicles then its o. And you remember how hard that was
